Yes, I've often heard the "There's no more pedophiles in the priesthood than there are in the general population." Even if that's true, the problem is that priests are in a respected position of power over children, so they're more likely to be trusting. That's like claiming that your local police department doesn't have any more criminals employed than in the general population. The fact is that their position requires them to be above suspicion.
The second problem is that instead of removing these pedophiles from the priesthood, the Church was often involved in covering those instances up and moving the priests around to different parishes where they were allowed to prey on new victims. So regardless of the percentage of pedophiles in the priesthood, the main problem is that the Catholic church was involved in a worldwide pattern of covering up the whole problem.

Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
